Question about Chris King ThreadFit 24 BB sleeve

I have this sleeve with two O-rings on one side and one O-ring on the other.



The manual shows a sleeve with one O-ring on either side.

Is this the wrong sleeve? (I bought the BB used.) If not, I'm wondering which side of the sleeve to use on the drive side.

While I'm at it, I assume I should grease the O-rings before installing? The manual does not mention this.

The sleeve dosent matter which way it goes. It just rides along and keeps the schmutz out of the crank and bearings. Grease the orings. I think the one with two orings fits wider BB shells as well. No biggie.
